Compass™ System

Designed to Navigate Change Healthcare organizations face an ongoing challenge in managing their facilities: While treatment and care processes continually evolve, many healthcare spaces are unable to adapt. Compass is a system of interchangeable components for patient and exam rooms, caregiver work areas, and other healthcare spaces. Compass easily and efficiently navigates change.

Support for Patients and Caregivers Compass environments are designed to support the needs and activities of patients and their caregivers. Compass seamlessly integrates patient-centered features, such as storage, personal lighting, and accessories, with caregiver-oriented features, such as work surfaces, sinks, glove storage, and technology support. Compass provides a well-designed, intuitively organized, and inherently satisfying experience for everyone who uses it.

Solutions for the Care Continuum Compass creates applications for acute care, ambulatory, and long-term care environments. Its broad range of components are easily combined, assembled, removed, rearranged, and potentially repurposed. More important, changes can be made easily without demolition. The results are unmatched flexibility and lasting value for the healthcare organization.

The Compass rail system makes installing and rearranging components simple. The rail also integrates with the Co/Struc® system, allowing lockers and other Co/Struc components to hang on it.

Designed for Healthcare Compass materials and components are designed to meet the unique needs of healthcare environments. Whether for ease of cleaning and infection control, or ergonomics and accessibility, the Compass system was designed with healthcare criteria in mind. And, with their 12-year, 24/7 warranty, these features provide the durability and resilience required in care environments. Compass accommodates the utility needs of healthcare environments. It integrates with and manages utilities, whether pre-plumbed/pre-wired, stubbed out, or chased from the ceiling. Pre-wired, pre-piped...
